Hey all, I am having a windshield installed Monday, a local glass guy is coming to my place to do it. I decided to pull the windshield myself since Im kind of at a stand still till i get the windshield in. Plus i don’t mind the experience.
Well i have the urethane scraped off and I found some rust, I know this is not ideal but I have the rust spots wire wheeled down to bare metal and it cleaned up nicely. Usually i like to wire wheel my rust and then hit with a self etching can primer or a rusty metal primer. I have been watching videos where they’ll use a brush on type primer in a small container. I’m not familiar with this product and it’s not clear to me when or how to use it. My question is should I move forward with hitting the bare metal with some of my typical primer, or wait for the glass guy to use his product directly on the bare metal? My thought is my primer will be fine since the existing urethane is laid over paint anyway. Then if he wants to use his product on top of the primed metal it'll be fine. Thoughts?
